Alba

COUNTY: Bradford

EXPLANATION OF NAME: Named for a Cathedral Town in Italy

FOUNDED: 1803

STATUS: Missing

Comments from former town mayor: ”There was a marker in Alba when I moved here from Canton in 1982. It was on the right side of the road coming north into Alba, near the 35 mph speed limit sign. When I became mayor, we commissioned a person to repaint the sign. It was stolen within a short time. The original sign read something like this: ‘ALBA named for a cathederal town in Italy. Founded in 1803.’ That sign has been gone for over 20 years.”
